Parameters

offset

Type: System.Int64A byte offset relative to origin. If offset is negative, the new position precedes the position specified by origin by the number of bytes specified by offset. If offset is zero, the new position is the position specified by origin. If offset is positive, the new position follows the position specified by origin by the number of bytes specified by offset.

If offset is negative, the new position must precede the position specified by origin by the number of bytes specified by offset. If offset is zero, the new position must be the position specified by origin. If offset is positive, the new position must follow the position specified by origin by the number of bytes specified by offset.

Seeking to any location beyond the length of the stream is supported. Seeking to an odd position for CLOB and NCLOB data types is also supported. For more information, see the Remarks section of the Read property.
